Whiting Black Hackle Capes and Saddles

Black is . . . well, black. Most black dry fly quality feathers are dyed. There are occasions that a few natural black hackles come along and the quality is surprisingly good but not good enough for the higher grades. Most natural black feathers have an iridescent green sheen to them. This is readily apparent in hen hackle, both in larger neck feathers and in saddle feathers. All the photos are of the actual cape or saddle we have in stock.

We inspect and grade each cape and saddle then take high-resolution, quality photos of each one so you know exactly what you are ordering from us. Since from bird to bird the colors may vary (as well as dyed colors)
we show all in stock colors below for you to chose the exact one that meets your
needs. (Click on a thumbnail image below to see a larger image.)
